Save the world, plant a tree
Planting a tree is one of the single best things you can do. Want to help prevent climate change? Plant a tree. Want to increase the well-being of the people who use your buildings? Plant a tree. Want to build communities? Plant trees. Trees are wonderful, we need them, we enjoy them. Tree planting doesn’t just help us, it helps the environment, including a diverse range of species, and encourages nature to flourish around us. And planting trees doesn’t have to mean a great drain on your finances.
The Woodland Trust could help you
The Woodland Trust among other organisations offer support and grants for planting trees. Planting trees can be used as a fundraising exercise, which is especially useful if you run a charity. People will be keen to sponsor a tree, especially one they see and touch, and lie under and read a book. Anything that you can fundraise doing can be used to generate PR, so even if your motivation for tree planting is entirely altruistic, it can have a great effect on your profits. (Then you can afford to plant more trees!)
Which tree? Let us help!
Not only are we very good at tree planting, having planted quite a few over the years, but we also have vast local and professional knowledge. We will be able to look at a piece of ground, and advise you on what sort of trees, and how many trees will work on that area. The type of ground will be a factor, whether it is clay, or sand-based soil. The level of local rainfall, and the water-holding ability of the ground will have a bearing on the type of trees which will thrive. The surrounding buildings will influence the decision, how close the trees can come to the building, and how their branches grow, will determine what trees will work successfully.
When you work with us, we design with you how your trees will be placed on the available ground. We can provide tree relocation services to help incorporate any current trees that you may already have. We can work to improve the biodiversity of the local environment, also adding plants and shrubs, to support the local nature. We can also carry tree inspections prior to the design so that we know that the original trees are healthy and viable before planning a design around them. And because we will have designed the planting, you know they will end up in the right place when we get to the planting. No having to deal with two different companies, one for design and one for implementation, which often causes stress and confusion. With us you get the whole package, from start to finish.
Our teams are hardworking, reliable, and professional. They work discreetly and as quietly as possible, so that there is minimum disruption to your business. They are fully trained, qualified, and insured, so that you can be confident with their skills. The teams are overseen by a first-class manager who is on-hand 24/7 for any issues that may arise. We are based in Worcestershire and work across the West Midlands, so our managers, not only our employees are local to you. We can also provide on-going landscape maintenance to keep your site looking tidy, clean, and presentable.
